DESCRIPTION
The IR3Y48A1 is a CMOS single-chip signal processing IC for CCD area sensors which includes correlated double sampling circuit (CDS), clamp circuit, programmable gain amplifier (PGA), reference voltage generator, black level detection circuit, 18 MHz 10-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC), timing generator for internally required pulses, and serial interface for internal function control and PGA gain control.
